To celebrate the onset of Spring, I will be orchestrating a "green" menu – i.e. clean eating. Hopefully this will kickstart healthier eating habits in the months leading up to Summer.
My cooking philosophy is minimalistic and rustic, focusing on the quality of the ingredients rather than overcomplicating the dishes. I make everything from scratch and try to procure the freshest and highest quality ingredients available (organic where possible and using imported meats from overseas).
The meals will be served family style on a communal dining table. Please bring some social lubricant (i.e. wine) to help facilitate more stimulating conversation. Oh, and just as a heads up, to help break the ice, we will be going around the table and you will be asked to share one personal and one professional fact about yourselves :)
